JOSEPH EISNEB, OF BALTIMORE,`MARYLAND.

DRAWERS, ovERALLs, AND PANTALooNs.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 317,982, dated May 19, 1885.

Application led December 18, 1884.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be'it known that I, JOSEPH EIsNER, a citizen of Poland, residing at Baltimore, in the State of Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Drawers, Overalls, and Pantaloons, of which the following is a specication.

My invention consists in cutting drawers, overalls, or pantaloons so that the legs of the garment may be made from one piece of cloth withoutMeanhat the bifurcation. To this end I take a single piece of cloth of sufficient length to form two legs, end to end, fold it lengthwise and cut transversely from the meeting edges nearly but not quite to the fold, leaving a connection, so that when the leg-patterns thus formed are placed side by side a seamless connection in whole cloth will remain beneath the fly, while sufficient cloth is afforded above the bifurcation or connection for the attachment of a body piece or pieces of any convenient form, which may be variously7 cut according to taste or requirement.

In order that the invention may be more fully understood, I will proceed to describe it with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which-4 Figure I represents a piece of cloth for the leg-pattern folded in readiness for cutting, the dotted lines indicating the cuts to be made therein. Fig. II shows the same cut. Fig. III represents the leg-pattern folded in position for making up, and also the body-piece in readiness for attachment thereto. Fig. IV shows the completed garment.-

The cloth A (shown in Figs. I and II) is in a single piece, simply folded. It is cut from the meeting edges, as shown at lin Fig. II, and indicated in dotted lines in Fig. I, nearly through to the fold, leaving a sufficient width uncut to form the crotch or bifurcation of the garment, as shown at 2 in Figs. II, III, and IV. The pattern is also cut with a sufficient `taper and in the required form on its free edges to shape the legs, as indicated at 3 in Fig. II, andin dotted lines in Fig. I. The meeting edges 3 are sewed together, forming seams on the outsides of the legs, and the pattern is folded in the position shown in Fig. III, so that the insides of the legs 4 4 and the connections 2 arehformed in one continuous piece of cloth without seam. The great advantage of this construction in avoiding the common (N o model.)

inconvenience of ripping at this point will be apparent.

The body B may be formed in one, two, three, or four pieces, as preferred. If in one piece, a seam is made on the dotted line 6; if in two pieces, the front B and back B are connected together by side seams at 7 8, in line with the seams on the outsides 3 3 of the legs, the back B of the body being in one and the front B in one, cut part of the way down to form the fly 5, but connected in one underneath the fly. If made in three pieces, the back B will be in one and the front B in two, with a seam at 6, as indicated in dotted lines. The back B may also be made in two, with a central seam, 9, the whole body being in this case formed of four pieces of cloth.

I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patentl. rIhe herein described improvement in the manufacture of drawers, overalls, or pan` taloons, which consists in taking a single piece of folded cloth of sufficient length to form the two legs, end to end, cutting it transversely from one side toward the fold, leaving a connection between the leg-patterns thus produced, and securing the body portion over and. to the portions separated in cutting the leg-patterns, substantially as set forth.

2. The herein-described improvement in the manufacture of drawers, overalls, or pantaloons, which consists in taking a single piece of cloth of sufficient length to forni the two legs, end to end, folding it lengthwise, cutting it transversely from the meeting edges toward the fold, leaving a connection between the leg-patterns thus produced, sewing together the side edges of each leg-pattern, and finally securing the body portion over and to the portions separated in cutting the leg-patterns, substantially as set forth.

3. The herein-described improvementin f the manufacture of drawers, overalls, or pantaloons, which consists in forming the leg-patterns from a single piece of cloth and the body from a single piece of cloth, the leg-patterns being cut out of the cloth, leaving a connection between them,and the body being stitched to the severed edges of the leg-patterns, substantially as set forth.
